Trevoh Chalobah emulated his sibling Nathaniel in representing England, emerging as the 21st pair of siblings to earn caps for the England side.

The Chelsea defender is set to join up with the Three Lions selection to fill in for injured Crystal Palace defender Marc Guehi.

The 26-year-old footballer is scheduled to join the team for England's remaining World Cup qualifiers against Serbia and Albania, although it has still not been officially announced.

The national side have already qualified for the upcoming World Cup.

Chalobah earned his initial call-up under England manager Thomas Tuchel in the month of May and then earned his first cap against the Senegalese team.

In September, Tuchel remarked Chalobah was unfortunate to be excluded from the team for qualifiers against Andorra and Serbia, and additionally didn't call him up for the subsequent October international break.

Tuchel has been an significant influence in Chalobah's career, having handed him his Chelsea first-team bow in the year 2021.

Chalobah has played in almost every games for Chelsea this season, with the team occupying third spot in the Premier League, in the EFL Cup last eight and in the league phase of the European competition.

Guehi sustained a injury to his foot in Crystal Palace's Conference League success over AZ Alkmaar in their last match.

There are expected to be additional inclusions to the squad. Newcastle manager Eddie Howe has confirmed that both attacker Anthony Gordon (hip injury) and goalkeeper Nick Pope (a concussion) will be unavailable from the squad.
